  • Coordinate multidisciplinary pursuit teams, including technical subject matter experts, business development professionals, and graphics teams.
  • Facilitate kickoff meetings, proposal reviews, and milestone meetings.

  • Write and edit executive summaries, cover letters, management plans, resumes, project descriptions, qualifications, and other non-technical proposal content.
  • Review proposal documents for compliance, quality, consistency, and responsiveness.
  • Coordinate design-build pursuits, including subcontractor coordination and review management.
  • Support interview and oral presentation preparation, including presentation materials and coaching.

  • Advanced proficiency with:
    • Adobe InDesign (required)
    • Adobe Acrobat Pro
    • Adobe Illustrator
    • Microsoft Word
    • Microsoft Excel
    • Microsoft PowerPoint
Adobe InDesign Requirement (Required)
Candidates must be advanced users of Adobe InDesign and able to work independently with minimal graphic design support. This includes:
  • Working confidently with master pages.
  • Managing paragraph and character styles.
  • Flowing text and graphics into existing templates.
  • Updating and reflowing proposal content efficiently.
  • Producing polished proposal documents with minimal supervision.
Preferred Experience

  • Transportation
  • Transit
  • Water and Wastewater
  • Municipal Infrastructure
  • State Departments of Transportation
  • Public Agencies
  • Heavy Civil Infrastructure
  • Program Management
  • Large Design-Build projects
Experience supporting agencies across multiple states is considered a strong advantage.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Bachelor's degree or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Professional certifications such as:
    • APMP (Association of Proposal Management Professionals)
    • Shipley Proposal Certification
    • PMP (Project Management Professional)
  • Experience facilitating proposal strategy workshops and review sessions.
  • Experience managing large-scale infrastructure pursuits valued at hundreds of millions of dollars.
What We're Looking For

This role requires excellent collaboration skills, sound judgment, and the ability to lead cross-functional teams while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.
